Oriah Mountain Dreamer's "What We Ache For" is a profound exploration into the depths of our creative essence, urging us to uncover and engage with the artistic spirit that resides within us all. With her characteristic wisdom and eloquence, Oriah invites us on a journey to understand and embrace our innate need to create, to express the inexpressible facets of our being through whatever medium calls to us. This book is not merely about the act of creating; it is an intimate call to recognize creativity as a fundamental component of our nature, as vital as our spirituality and sexuality, intricately woven into the fabric of our lives and our very selves. Through chapters that resonate deeply, such as "The Seduction of the Artist," "Learning to See," and "Risk and Sacrifice," Oriah not only challenges us but also inspires us to dare to listen to the whispers of our hearts. She guides us to see our creative work not as a luxury or an afterthought but as a crucial pathway to deeper understanding, healing, and connection with the world. "What We Ache For" is a compelling invitation to embrace our creative work with the urgency and reverence it deserves, allowing us to make love to the world through our expressions. It is a book for anyone who has ever felt the stirrings of creativity within them, offering the promise of discovery, transformation, and the fulfillment of our most profound aches.
